Retirement for me is a time of reflection and growth

This is a special time for me reflect and sort through a vast accumulation of excess childhood baggage that shaped my life until now. As you may recall from my previous posts I had a lot of questions and doubts surrounding religion and Christianity. Thank you for your patients and support while processing these things that challenged and shaped the person I am today.
 

Tried to change title, waited too long. OP was boring, decided to liven things up...enjoy!

Me too - but not religion and spirituality. The most important lesson of my life is that the most important thing is tomorrow. I've done things, some I regret, some I want to tell everyone about, some I'm proud of, some not. It took retirement before I truly thought about such things, and why I am the way I am. I found some terrible things, some good things. But Gods aren't really a part of it.
 
This definitely is a great time for reflection. I've learned so much more about life and myself since I'm not so busy working like I did in the past. I'm more appreciative about even the small things now. Maybe this is when we get our 'Wisdom' people talk about...lol.

I agree
 
Somethings I wish I had accomplished when I was young but did not think of until it was too late.

The most important lesson of my life is that the most important thing is TODAY
